The water cage was cold, but the man in the water didn't seem to be afraid at all. His upper body was bare, and whip scars covered his entire body. His normally supple black hair was a lot more messy. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot in the prison during this half month.

Qin Yu pretended to be intimate with each other as he looked at the miserable man who was locked in the water, and his eyes revealed a slight luster. So what if he grew up with Yue Hua, he was still honestly locked in the water prison. In the current cliff, the only person who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Yue Hua was him.

But Ke Yuehua ignored him, she worriedly looked at the Jian Qiuying in the water, she did not expect the water prison facilities to be so firm and secretive, wanting to save him, was simply too difficult.

"Yuehua, you're here." He raised his head, and when he looked at the red-clothed female, his ice-cold face actually had a hint of gentleness in it.

"Please leave, Right Protector." Ke Yuehua consciously and Jian Qiuying's conversation with each other could not be heard by anyone else, so he unrestrainedly ordered Qin Yu to be excused.

"What, could it be that Left Protector has something shameful that he can't speak to my Right Protector?" Qin Yu naturally heard the obvious intention of 'expelling' anyone from his mouth, but in his heart, he had always been accommodating to the moon, causing him, who was filled with jealousy, to become angry at the embarrassing man in the water.

"He's clearly just a drowning dog, but he's still delusional enough to think of getting close to that phoenix." He had originally thought that the man in the water would angrily refute him, but unexpectedly, the man in the water seemed to not have heard him at all. His eyes were filled with longing and reluctance as he looked at the woman outside the water prison.

How preposterous! This Jian Qiuying is only a prisoner. Does he really think he is the former Left Protector?! Who gave him the courage to ignore this protector!

With that thought in mind, Qin Yu quietly held onto a silver needle in his hand. That needle was extremely thin and long, to the point where ordinary people wouldn't notice it. On the surface of the needle, there was a faint green glow. It was obvious that the needle had been poisoned.

If Jian Qiuying received this needle and was not treated in time, coupled with his currently weak physique, it was likely that he would be poisoned to death very soon. Death in a water prison was a common occurrence and it would not be easy to investigate. This Qin Yu, what a vicious heart!

Just as he was about to take advantage of the gap to shoot the silver needles, Ke Yuehua suddenly said, "I have a few words with this traitor, but it is all a private matter. The Protector of the Right is busy, I believe he would not want to hear about these trivial matters."

He thought that Yue Hua wanted to meet with Jian Qiuying for the sake of reminiscing about old feelings. But now, it seems that he was doing so to settle old debts.

Since that was the case, he let this Jian Qiuying live for a few more days. And in order to make Yue Hua happy, Qin Yu naturally followed her orders. In the end, he fiercely glanced at the Jian Qiuying in the water prison and obediently went out.

In the end, only the two of them remained in the water prison.

"Yuehua, you really do hate me." There was a bit of pain on the face of the Jian Qiuying, obviously because he believed what the Ke Yuehua had said just now was true. He understood that the conspiracy between him and the crown prince could not be hidden from Yue Hua. She had also known that he had sent Night Autumn out to be by her side. He just did not expect that Yue Hua would place such a heavy emphasis on such matters.

Thinking about it here, the bitterness in Jian Qiuying grew even more. Looking at the Ke Yuehua in front of the water prison, he felt that she must have been looking at him with disappointment and disgust.

"Senior apprentice-brother Autumn Shadow." Looking at the depressed expression on his Jian Qiuying, Ke Yuehua seemed to think that he was sad because he had lost his freedom while being locked in the prison. Senior Brother, don't worry. Yue Hua will definitely save you. "

When he heard the title that he had not been called for a long time, he actually fell into a trance for a moment. Ever since Yue Hua lost her memories, she had never called herself that. That's right, back then at the cliff, the two were indeed under the same master, and at that time, the two were both calling each other apprentices. Later on, because Yue Hua was gifted enough, she was taken in as an adopted daughter by Ke Zheng. After that, the two rarely saw each other. It was only when he was promoted to Left Protector that they met again.

Even though they were in the water prison, the two of them were still of the same heart. Since she called him senior brother, then she definitely would not hate him, and what she had said just now was definitely to deceive Qin Yu.

Thinking about that Qin Yu, even the normally calm Jian Qiuying revealed a trace of disgust. Back then, when he had gone out on a mission with Yue Hua, he had faintly sensed that the gaze this Qin Yu used to look at Yue Hua was definitely not that of a subordinate looking at his master, but an evil, possessive, forbidden gaze.

He had also mentioned this to Yuehua, but Yuehua never cared about the trivial matters behind her. Her identity and status were destined that she wouldn't stay behind for the sake of any eyes behind her. There were many people who took advantage of Mu Yuhua within the cliff. It was likely that this Qin Yu was one of the unremarkable ones. Later on, this matter was forgotten by the two of them.

It was just that he did not expect that along the way, the Qin Yu would rise from an unknown assassin to the right Protector of the side of the Ke Zheng, and in a short night, his temperament had changed greatly. His originally weak personality had become cruel and bloodthirsty, and it was said that he would frequently kidnap some young and beautiful girls outside. Of course, his perverted hobbies were not only limited to this, even his Ke Zheng could not stand his cold attitude. He would usually only summon the Left Protector to do things.

Afterwards, for some unknown reason, Protector Zuo did not return after carrying out a mission. He had also sent out assassins to search for him, but to no avail. It was as if Protector Zuo had just disappeared into thin air.

Amongst all the assassins, Jian Qiuying was the one with the most potential. Although there wasn't much to say, every time he completed the mission perfectly, and adding the fact that Ke Yuehua had once mentioned him at Ke Zheng's side, Ke Zheng didn't stop at nothing, and directly pulled him up to be the Left Protector who was by his side.

This was why from then on, Qin Yu would always find trouble with him. Every time he and Yue Hua went on a mission together, he would feel a chill down his spine.

Ke Yue's words did not know what Jian Qiuying was thinking. Now that she had recovered her memories, it was as if she was treading on thin ice within the cliff, and she absolutely could not continue to stay here with broken sword cliff. She immediately told Jian Qiuying about her plan of feigning submission and finding a way to escape the cliff.

Since Yue Hua intended to do this, then he must cooperate with her. After the two of them planned for a while, they decided to pretend to submit first, and let Ke Zheng relax his vigilance before deciding on the next step.
